We Are Blessed

Last night, after reading our Bartholomews Passage Advent reading, we were talking about how the kids in the book only got 2 meals a day. And how in some countries, the people don't eat 3 meals a day like we do.

Our youngest, 10, said "Then why do we eat three meals a day?"

I said because we are blessed.

He said "That's a blessing we want to keep."

I want my kids to know how blessed we are. I want my kids to know that Jehovah Jireh is the one who provides for them.

That's why I love this series of Advent books so much, they are full of opportunities for conversations with the kids.

If you haven't gotten any of these books yet, I highly recommend you get them now so you have them ready for next year.
